Well, one colonial-style gown is finished and listed in my shop. It is the prettiest cotton print and looks pretty good on my borrowed Felicity, don't you think?
Soon I'll post reviews of the patterns I tried--one kicked my butt and one was very nice to me. This dress has elements of both. The pinner cap is from the Pleasant Co. patterns and was super easy.
I loved sewing this--it reminded me of how much Abby and I enjoyed reading the American Girl Felicity series by Valerie Tripp, set in 1774 Williamsburg. She still cracks me up when she randomly says, "I'll take no tea today." You know you're kind of nerdy when you and your daughter have inside American Girl jokes!
